ROSALIE'S9 MONTH STATS

Weight

Rosalie is 15 lbs 12 oz as of her 9 month check-up. That's only 6 ounces up from the 7 month check-up but her pediatrician isn't at all concerned. He said it's most likely due to the fact that she's SO mobile now. I agree!

Height

Rosalie is 26.25 inches tall! Again, not to much taller than last month but that's okay!

About Rosalie

I'll be honest. It's been a rough month for this girl. She has been very cranky because of teething. She's drooling, crying about everything, chewing on whatever she can get her hands on, sleeping longer, and all she wants is Mama to hold or nurse her. My poor girl... I hope she gets these dang teeth soon! Rosalie is so sweet though. She loooooves playing with Charlotte. Now that she's more mobile, she crawls after Charlotte all over the house, climbs on her, wrestles with her, tries to "get" her if she's near, and just loves and laughs at her in general. I love their friendship! It's so sweet to watch two girls who I created love each other. They definitely have their moments tough! They are now interested in the same toys so...you can imagine where I'm going with that. lol. We're neck deep in teaching them to share! But I know that their fighting is nothing in comparison to their loving each other.

Eating

Rosalie is pretty much off of purees. She'll sometimes eat rice cereal but not all the time. She generally nurses throughout the day and eats at meals with us. She likes strawberries, peas, bread, corn, eggs, rice, tomatoes, green beans, grapes, crackers, and anything frozen! Haha! She is also starting to want to drink more water - especially from a straw! I'm going to have to go get her a small sippy cup because she can't quite hold onto Charlotte's big ones yet.

Size

Rosalie is still in a lot of 6 month clothing but she fits into a lot of 9 month stuff too. She is still in size 3 diapers!

Milestones

- She is walking along things! She pulls herself up on the coffee table or the couch and walks along with no help at all. She's loving being more active and I love that she can get her energy out instead of crying because she wants to move around. Haha!

- She is eating crackers and different kinds of foods! Even though she doesn't have teeth yet, she's really quite good at breaking small pieces off of bread and crackers, mashing them with her gums, getting them soggy, and eating them. She's beginning to love more adventurous foods!

- She has waved a few times! It's only been 2 or 3 times but she has waved at me and then hid her face like she's embarrassed. Hahaha it's so cute! I'm loving it! I hope she starts doing it more. :)

Me Postpartum

I'll be honest - it's been a rough few weeks with Rosalie's teething for me. While I feel bad that she's so miserable, I feel tired, drained emotionally, and my patience is running low. But it's an opportunity to practice more patience I suppose. It's hard! But I guess that's what being a mother is... :)

Thanks for reading all about Rosalie being 9 months old! She growing up WAY too fast for my liking but she's still such a sweet, yummy little nugget. I can't wait to see what kind of woman she'll become one day. :)
